So, can I buy a GT for 300k flat?

This is one of my dream cars and I thought, I missed the boat buying one in the low 300 after seeing it going back up north again. Do I get a second chance on this? What do you think? How low can it go for a cash offer for a good car, Euro and BP back down and all?

Cheers

The demand from Europe drove prices back up over 400k. Since then the dolllar gained 20% which suggest no more demand from Europe. Add the economic crisis to the mix and you will have very few buyers.

I agree, was afraid I had missed the boat when the market was flooded and one low miles example went for $280. I was waiting for $250. Now we might get another chance.

Catch 22 is that for me, I would need to sell 2 or 3 cars and will take a hit on each so relatively, still does not work

Thanks for all the replies. Will see how strong the sellers are and how long they can hold off. If I find one for the right price soon, I would just put one in storage for the winter anyways....even at only 5% money six months is still $7500.

I sold mine at the top of the market a few weeks ago.

I would not be surprised if a 10k silver or seal one with a 28 - 29mm clutch could be had for low 300's in early Jan.

Sept 18 car #220, 13,500 miles, silver/black went for $285k
private sale

with everything considered, and once the warrentys are gone you will find plenty around 250k with miles. very low miles will be a tad over 300

they are falling, and will continue to fall for the next couple of years atleast
